Play me another broken record Joe. Maybe then I'll learn why we pay twice as much for healthcare as everybody else in the world. ~ Not Henry Kissinger

divineorder purposely uncapitalized his username. I received this message from him last year:

Hey, would you do me a favor?

My screen name is one word. JS starting shortcutting but it has no caps, on purpose.

divineorder

Thanks!

He told me how he chose his name.

(A church they went to) advocated affirmative prayer to a universal spirit, not an old white man sitting in judgement, but rather a father-mother-god. So instead of begging god for something, one says it in a way that accepts it will happen. Then accept the Divine Order. I got in the habit of vocalizing divine order when facing challenges and not knowing the way. It is a sort of acceptance and a way to create space for things to come about in due time.
..
Anyway, when I chose the dk name I went for using lower case and one word so as not to offend anyone by claiming myself as some deity or some such. Every time I see the name it’s a little boost to my spirit. Heh. How’s that for an explanation?

I saw him in a different light after receiving his message and I always felt that he was a very peaceful person who lived life in peace. He wanted his username spelled right so let's honor his wishes.

America is a pathetic nation; a fascist state fueled by the greed, malice, and stupidity of her own people.

so sad. Crazy how I can feel so connected to someone I've never met. Just goes to show how powerful a person's words can be. Deepest sympathies to JB & DO's family, both in person and online. Peace to all in this time of sorrow.
